Skills Tackling/wrestling coach

[kaitigers]

I'm a junior footballer I'm 15 and play bendigo pioneers a few of my coaches have identified that contested possessions and tackling is a bit of an issue just wondering if anyone knows of any tackling/wrestling coaches in Melbourne?

There is definitely a case for technique when tackling but if the want to tackle isn't there it won't matter so i think mindset is above technique to improve this.

In your games have someone take your tackling stats in the area's of:

Tackles that stopped the opposition with wither a stoppage or free kick to you
Tackles that were laid but they weren't effective
Missed tackles

There's nothing like solid data to really see what you're doing.

This could also be used for contested possessions but maybe with a different tact as it might be your positioning that hurts you here where if you set up as an insider then you'll more then likely get a possession that is contested in that contest but if you're setting up at the fringe or off the pack then it will more often be of the uncontested type.

Hit the strong room too though as having "armour" and strength will give you great confidence of going in and making an impact of some sort
